About

Human Resources and Organization Director with extensive experience in the services/manufacturing sectors, both locally and internationally. I have held progressively senior managerial roles in complex companies, focusing on business turnaround, organizational development, and change management, initially as a Consultant/Project Manager and later as an HR Business Partner. My professional journey has taught me to delegate effectively, build trust among colleagues, and lead by example, inspiring confidence and positivity. I help those around me develop their skills independently, motivating them to improve, achieve ambitious goals, and take on increasing responsibilities. I intuitively adopt the roles of coach or mediator, aware that behaviors and interpersonal dynamics significantly influence results at all levels. MBA graduate. Fluent in English, Spanish, French and Italian.
